Once I put on the CC plates when they come in, and I take it to the alignment shop. What tools do the "specialists" use and what specifically do they do to align the car correctly and as "perfectly" as they can?

well first they roll it onto an Alignment Rack (looks like a car lift that you drive on) the alignment settings are checkd by dishes that connect to the wheels



that relay what the caster/camber/toe angles in which they move the C/C plates around to adjust into the settings that are for the specific car



since i had a 2in drop i pushed the camber all the way out to try and get the tires to sit flat
